Abstract
Isoflurane anesthesia administered simultaneously with the injection of LPS decreases serum production of TNF-α and IL-6 despite bilateral transection of the vagus nerve. Isoflurane-mediated attenuation of proinflammatory cytokine production occurs via a mechanism other than modulation of vagal output.
